Pensacola, Florida - Saltwater Fishing Report
Pensacola Bay and the Gulf
For the past few weeks, the wind had made fishing tough, but now that June is here, the weather has been picture perfect.
Fishing has been off the charts for Kings and Spanish mackerel. With the seas much calmer, especially with the milder wind, we were finally able to get out and go after some drag-screaming kings. And the kings were ready for the taking! Not only are the kings running good, we are seeing some big Spanish mackerel in the same areas where we are hooking up the kings.
A little closer inshore we are catching some quality speckled trout, with some reaching close to 3 – 4 lbs. Skipjacks and bluefish are plentiful and are great fun to catch on light tackle. The rest of this week looks great, and with temperatures in the upper 80’s to lower 90’s and variable winds, it should make for great fishing along the Panhandle.
If you’re looking for some great light tackle action, give me a shout and we’ll get you hooked-up on a Smoker King!
See you on the water.

Bio: I have a lifetime of fishing knowledge and over 8yrs of experience fishing the northern gulf coast and our local water ways. I have enjoyed fishing all my life. While living in the Midwest, I fished Kentucky & Barkley Lake for years along with the Ohio River and many local water ways. My first passion was bass fishing, but when I visited the Gulf Coast I found my new love Salt Water Fishing !
